I do expect, along with the team in general, to be much better next season.

Don't you think that's probably the case for most 40 point/season forwards?
They go three games with 5 points and get you all excited and then don't produce for the next 7 etc.
If you look at his season in 5 game segments he was the following in xGF%
50.3%
64.3%
70.7%
49.5%
61.6%
49.9%
Sutter enters
50.9%
53.3%
54.5%
60.2%
64.5%
He's pretty consistent. His lows are never that low when it comes to play driving, and he found another gear when Sutter took over (makes sense given Sutter mentioning him often)
